That was more or less what I was hoping to avoid; I find that "remotes" 
in git has a bit of an impedance mismatch with my brain. I should 
probably just buckle down and write a shell script to do it!

"Hilariously" I spent a whole hour the other day trying to figure out why:

./libtool --mode=execute gdb src/main/radiusd -d ~/frmaster/etc/raddb
